only when the steering wheel is all the way to the left at a very slow speed, usually when making a three point turn to the left i hear a very nasty squeaking noise while breaking or slowing down on the turn. does anyone have any clue what might be causing this noise?

 

check your belt tension. specifically your power steering belt. after i installed my udp, i didnt' tighten the power steering belt sufficiently... so it squealed if i turned all the to way to the left at slow speeds.

 

this is usually caused by the steering bumpstops wearing through. They're just these little plastic caps on the end of the bumpstops that prevent metal-to-metal contact at the steering locks.....Both of mine eventually wore through, and I replaced them...sound gone. They cost about 5 bucks at a dealer....

 

thank you guys for the input and advice and irish44j, how can i get to these steering bumpstops to check to see if they are wearing out? thanks again.

 

Don't turn the wheel 100% of the way to the end...try it 99.885745475% of the way...
